Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1946, 2024, 1986, 1989—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1946-03-28.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Francisco Tomey” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Francisco, Tomey and Spanish provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 4, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q44603823. VIAF identifies the subject as 6603167807393618130000. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1946, 2024, 1986 and 1989.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
